Low-fat

Simplicity is the law of nature for men as well as for flowers. - Thoreau

today at the park

i bent down and picked a buttercup

admiring it in my hand

twirling its divine beauty

marveling at its simple but elegant art

so angelic

so powerful

so small

i thanked heaven that god isn't concerned with cholesterol

Author's Note

"He who would have nothing to do with thorns must never attempt to gather flowers. If the day and night are such that you greet them with joy, and life emits a fragrance like flowers and sweet-scented herbs, is more elastic, more starry, more immortal - that is your success." - Thoreau

Amen. If He had been, he wouldn't have created pizza, either.
